7.5.2 free transform ID and text boxes

Help please. I must be missing something or a pref.

IDCS4-> Text defined in a block of text.
Use the free transform tool to rotate the text block
and the text rotates with the framework.

IDCS5.5-> Text defined in a block of text.
Use the free transform tool to rotate the
block of text, but the text does not turn with the framework.

I am looking for CS4 behavior when using the free transform on blocks of text tool.

I think there must be a preference or something simple, I'm missing. But for the life of me I can't find it. The search of these forums is nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Mac OS 10.6.8/ID 7.5.2

So, I thought about it.

I used to hit... a... then e on the keyboard of the Illustrator years use. (Direct Selection tool, then the free transform tool)

So if you have the active (white arrow) direct Selection tool, select the text block, and then select the free transform... only the frame turns tool. Text will stay perpendicular to the page.

If you have the selection tool (the black arrow) assets, select the text block, and then select the free transform tool... text and image will be rotated.

This is new for ID CS5.x. with IDCS4 it makes no difference what selection tool allows you to select the text block.

  • Acrobat Standard DC - can't change the text and text box properties

    Earlier this week, I lost the ability to change the properties of the text and text boxes.

    When I add a comment with a text box or in the text caption, I do all the time, I used to be able to change the font color, size, alignment, etc.

    Now, when I go to insert a text box or the legend, all the options in the properties bar are grayed out.

    This issue effects ONLY the text in the box and the caption functions. all the other drawing functions work very well. I can change the color, fill and the type of lines around the text, I can just change the text.

    Any suggestions?

    Thank you.

  • Create a PDF from Word 2010 file is not correctly convert pictures and text boxes

    I have 11 Acrobat and my co-workers with 9 and 10 can correctly convert Word documents with images and text boxes, but v.11 cut the text and is not convert the images correctly.

    Hey Luke,

    You may need to check with other files in Word also to analyze whether the problem is with word or Acrobat.

    Open a word document, add images, then try to convert it to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer as PDFMaker option well.

    Let me know what happens.

    In addition, to make Adobe PDF as default printer and check.

    You could even go in PDFMaker preferences and uncheck the option "enable accessibility and reflow with tagged Adobe PDF" on the tab "settings".

    If that don't work, then please share the file with me by e-mail (email ID sent via private message) so that I can check my end.

    Kind regards

  • How do you define the default font size and color for the text caption and text boxes?

    When I click CTR + e to open the text properties box when you are working with markup tools, the default font size is 9.

    I understand how to change the font size for the individual text boxes but the size is up to 9 whenever I create a new box.

    Is there a way to set a default font for brand boxes place size? I spent hours searching and have not found one.

    This problem appeared only with the latest version of Acrobat Reader DC (15.017.20050).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

  • Son of text and text boxes

    In InDesign CS4, I start a text box and enter text.  When I hit the key "enter" to start a new row, InDesign automatically creates a thread of text into another text box.  I don't want it and the program never used to behave this way.

    Any ideas on what I can fact?

    TIA

    Looks like you might be using the button ENTER on the numeric keypad, which is a column break (and if you have only one column per page or frame it passes then then one).

    If you do not use the numeric keypad, chances are you are on a computer windows laptop and you have a bios that maps the two enter keys together, and the behavior will change depending on the State of the NumLock key. If this is the case, let know us and we can tell you how to make custom keyboard shortcuts to work around the problem.

  • Check box and text box

    I would like to know if there is a way to click a checkbox created (says 'X') and have it show the word "FAILURE" in another text box.  I have only about 10-12 boxes that I want to have this done which is indicated by an exclamation point to the right of the check box.  Verification of the other boxes would not fail in the text box.

    George, WOW! It's great.  I tried every checkbox and everything works fine.  Thanks for all your help.  I am so grateful that you did.  Thank you once again.

  • objects (lines) and text boxes are not able to make larger or smaller

    first: for no reason at all, all my text boxes are now implemented in the text block.  I don't know how that lit.  When I go to 'type '.

    and try to choose "threaded text" it won't allow me to select - it is not highlighted.  So I have no idea

    How to disable this option.  Now, I can't stretch my text boxes depending on what is in them - IE: make bigger or smaller, that is to say: there's only two boxes hanging out - one on each side of the text box and they allow me to drag to enlarge the box - only to move the whole box (before there were 4 boxes to manipulate the size of the text box - a on every corner - now, there only two) and this seems to apply

    in many other objects now.  When I draw a line, I have to make sure that the line is the exact right size because once I have draw - it will not allow me to make it larger or smaller - it only allows me to move it to a different location - I don't understand what's going on

  • buttons and text boxes dynamic xml

    How can I implement the buttons to fill areas of text with dynamic text in an xml document?

    I want the 1 button to load some information on element1 in the text box when the button is wriggle on and then when the button is clicked it should open a new window browser for this element.

    then the 2 key will do the same in the same text, but with the info box for point 2

    I have 2 text boxes, one is called "title", which will have the name of the product, the other is named "ssnumber" and it will have the number of the product.

    I have an xml file. and I already did in as2 (with the help of ned and a few others) and it worked fine, but I just got word that people this accommodation only accepts as3. This is my first attempt at as3, it's very different.

    Here is the code I have for my book

    var xml

    loader: URLLoader = new URLLoader ();

    xmlLoader.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, loadXML);

    var xmlData:DML = new XML();


    function LoadXML (e:target): void {}

    xmlData = new (e.target.data);

    xmlLoader.load (newURLRequest ("products.xml"));

    but now I'm stuck. I know I must add button events

    () pedals.addEventListener

    MouseEvent.MOUSE_OVER... now what? and where do I add this code? and how do I contact text (title and ssnumber) areas?

    Here is my xml tags are also named title and ssnumber, is this ok, or should I change it?

  • Master Pages and text boxes

    I'm trying to set up my master page with a few text boxes, but I try to get so that the text boxes I put in place in the master page, I can use and edit text in my Document. But what is the point of putting the text boxes in the master pages if you can't use them on your pages. This could be something simple, but I can't understand it. IM use cs4. Help, please

    Thanks for the help, I was hoping that I didn't have to place text on each page

    There is nothing wrong with putting a text on a master page object. To edit a template on a page, command + shift + click on item.

  • Image and text box

    Hi everyone here,

    I'm sorry for all of you here once more evil.
    I have a question here.

    Is it possible to view an image on the stage when the user has typed in certain words in the field of the input text box?
    I need this for the quiz, when students entered a response, the 'correct' or 'bad' image is displayed.

    Thank you very much.

    FiOh

    Try this. Hope it will work fine. You must give the property of field var of your text box of entry as "years". Give the name of the button as "my_btn.

    One more important thing...

    You must select the "Export for Actionscript" checkbox in the binding of the clips property.
